THE BRAMBLE AND THE ROSE (Barbara Keith) 
We have been so close together Each a candle, each a flame. All the dangers were outside us, And we knew them all by name. 
CHORUS: See how the bramble and the rose Intertwine Love grows like a bramble and a rose Round each other we will twine. 
Now I've hurt you, and it hurts me Just to see what we can do To ourselves and to each other Without really meaning to. 
So put your arms around me And we'll sing a true love song. We will learn to sing together, Sing and laugh the whole night long.
